If you are looking for a Sprinter Van, then you know that this is the best van on the market. In you are nerdy about it, then you also know that 2005 was the prettiest year of this vans design. It is a big van that drives like a small van. It has great suspension and is very stout and very stable at freeway speed. It is a great drive. Long miles are NO problem at all.

This is the shop van which gets driven very infrequently and is very well loved, and have always been garaged. It has only 24700 miles (the image below says less, but as I type this, it is out on a run but the mileage will not except 24800 by the end of the auction). 
It is simply taking up too much space right now and needs to find a home where it will be used more. If you are looking at this listing you know that this van has hundreds of thousands of miles left in it. At less than 25,000 miles, from 2005, it is a miracle that it is in such amazing shape.

The previous owner turned the Dodge into a "Mercedes" (there is a package one can buy to do this...ah vanity!!!)  and has bluetooth, backup camera, a rear DVD player. The stereo works but the navigation has ceased to work but I think it is repairable, we just haven't needed it, so we do without. It is used locally, so it has been unnecessary. The stereo sounds great, but is the same vintage as the car and if you were really into it, you would likely change it. It was the top of the line in 2005 though. So, it still rules, it also has an older iPhone attachment. The Bluetooth is a hands free system and works with any phone that has blue tooth technology. The backup camera makes this van extremely easy to park. It is a fun drive too.

You can fit a full sheet of plywood in the back flat between the rear wheel wells, while keeping a row of seats in the back. 

It has some blemishes all are in the attached images, so please refer to them. But I will list below:

There are some small scratches on the hood and sides of the van. All barely noticable.
One of the rear seats has a crack from the being removed (by myself which I would not advise) and was dropped. ALL SEATS AND SEATBELTS ARE IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER.
There is a ding in the rear drivers side corner of the van, and is also hard to notice.
The bumper at the rear of the guide for the sliding door was knocked off by a new employee who misjudged the space he was fitting it into. It is minor.
There are a couple small tears in the rubber flooring also from putting the seats in my myself, and from carrying some sharp metal a couple of times.
There is a small small tear in the side vinyl above the fabric, which is also very small.

It kills me to sell it, but I just don't need it right now.

Happy bidding.

Sunday Drive: The future looks bright, and the present ain't bad, either

Sun, Oct 1 2017

A look at the week that just passed proves that Autoblog readers love looking into the future. Spy photos of the next Porsche 911 and a mysterious Dodge Demon prototype led the way last week as some of our most popular stories. A teaser from Subaru has our appetites whetted for the next WRX, and we're intrigued by the value proposition offered by the rear-wheel-drive Kia Stinger. Long-distance motorcycle tourers went gaga over leaked images of the next Honda Gold Wing. Such intense interest comes as no surprise considering that it's the standard by which all its competitors are judged, and it looks to be getting some serious new technology in its next iteration. And finally, we can't help tooting our own horn a bit. Autoblog just launched a brand-new Car Finder tool, which, after getting a few data points to work with, offers up a perfect list of vehicles for new-car buyers. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2019 Porsche 911 to get digital interior — only the tach will be analog Spy Shots: What the devil is Dodge up to with this narrow-body Challenger Demon?

FCA UConnect fiasco could set over-the-air updates back years

Fri, Feb 16 2018

Since cars have become more software dependent, most major automakers have been inching toward enabling over-the-air updates to keep vehicle electronics, ranging from infotainment systems to safety features, current. But there are only two car companies — Fiat Chrysler and Ford —± currently doing OTA updates, and on a limited basis. GM CEO Mary Barra announced last summer that the automaker will launch a new EV architecture and infotainment system capable of over-the-air updates "before 2020." The one exception, per usual, is Tesla. Since the release of the Model S almost six years ago, the maverick EV automaker has made routine OTA software updates a core part of its vehicle platforms and value proposition, and has sent out updates for everything from adjusting ride height to enabling Autopilot, largely without incident. When I've asked automakers why they can't do the same thing, I've heard reasons ranging from running afoul of their dealers (and archiac regulation) to security concerns. Automakers like Ford and General Motors say they want to act like tech companies, which routinely send out OTA updates for a wide range of devices, but overall the car industry still moves at a very cautious snail's pace. And when automakers do try to move faster and take more risks — unlike with a smartphone update, which people bitch about but live with — the consequences can be significant when things go wrong. That's the case with Fiat Chrysler America and its recent public-relations nightmare when an OTA update went awry. The update went out at the end of last week for the Uconnect system in late-model vehicles, and it made head units go into a near continuous reboot, which caused owners to not only lose access to entertainment features, but also critical functions like emergency assistance. Almost immediately, owners took to Twitter to express outrage, and FCA was caught flatfooted. A tweet went out on Monday on the UconnectCares Twitter account that read, "Certain 2017 & 2018 Uconnect systems may experience a reboot every 45-60 seconds. Our Engineering teams are investigating the cause and working towards a resolution.

Stellantis aims to eliminate separate inverter, charger to improve EV efficiency

Fri, Jul 21 2023

Stellantis has announced that, in collaboration with French battery company Saft and French National Center for Scientific Research, has made significant progress in eliminating two major components of an electric vehicle powertrain: the on-board charger and the power inverter for the motor. The company claims that doing this will allow for better space use in vehicles, as well as improvements in efficiency, cost and reliability of components. As a quick primer, also explained in the below video, the on-board charger and power inverter are sort of translators to get the right current to different parts of the electric powertrain. The on-board charger takes AC power from the grid and converts it to DC to charge the batteries. Then when power goes from the batteries to the electric motor, the power inverter converts that DC power back to AC. These components aren't exactly small. Frequently you'll find them packaged somewhere under the hood. What Stellantis and its cohorts have developed, and have been using on a test vehicle since last summer, are small power inverter boards that can be mounted very closely to the battery packs. They can handle both conversion needs, for charging and discharging, instead of needing two separate devices. The most obvious perk to this is that you can do away with those traditional components and free up more space, either for making smaller vehicles without losing interior volume, or adding space to a vehicle that wouldn't have had it otherwise. There's the additional benefit of reduced weight, something that EVs struggle with. Stellantis also claims improvements in efficiency, reliability, and cost, however, it didn't go into detail as to how this setup would do that exactly. We'll try to get in touch with representatives from Stellantis in order to get more information. We're still a ways out from seeing this technology in production Stellantis vehicles. The company said it aims to apply it to vehicles by the end of the decade. Saft is also looking at using it on stationary battery systems as well. So maybe we'll see it on a 2029 Ram 1500 REV, but for now, we'll be living with traditional chargers and inverters. Related Video: Green Alfa Romeo Chrysler Dodge Fiat RAM Technology Electric
